After calving, it takes 60 to 90 days for cows to resume cycles. This period is called postpartum anestrous. In first calf heifers, postpartum anestrous lasts longer than mature cows. It normally takes 90 to 120 days for first calf heifers to resume cycles.
The Story of Bottled Water. The Story of Bottled Water, released on March 22, 2010 (World Water Day), employs the Story of Stuff style to tell the story of manufactured demandâhow you get Americans to buy more than half a billion bottles of water every week when it already flows virtually free from the tap.

But also like today, the historical popularity of bottled water was further due to an associated image and status.
